Recently, I took some of my shots which I'm most proud of, and had some art
prints made up from them, which I then listed on ebay for a few pounds each
to see if they would sell.
I checked my ebay account today to find that I've sold a few.
This calls for a celebratory beer.

First you say you have sold one then you say you have sold a few, so what is
it to be?
I'll be amazed to see these photos.

But your view is irrelevent - whoever has brought them presumably
likes them, if 'Fat Sam' can tape into what the British public want in
the way of photos good luck to him.

Unfortunately selling one average photo isn't as good as selling 100 good
photos. Yet every f.cker is doing it these days and is ruining true
photographs.

Let me guess - nobody appreciates your truly wonderful work because
everyone else is producing rubbish.

So people like the "substandard shite" more than your work? Does that
tell you anything?

I am amazed at you telepathic and god like abilities, much akin to most
photographers these days.
Still no link to ebay to give my true opinion.

I wasn't aware that it took telepathic or godlike abilities to ask a
simple question, although it seems to be beyond your ability to answer
it.

It only proves that the public are gullible and are easily led.

It doesn't /prove/ anything, but it suggests that everyone else thinks
your stuff is crap.

Everything you say and everything you do? Based only on the evidence of
your posts here, of course.

Well, all I can say is "Well done!"
I'm sitting here sipping a very pleasant Hunter Valley red. I've had
an extra sip just for you.

Sounds great. Where can we see some photo samples or an image of the
one you sold?

I dunno why you guys want to see thing sold on eBay? Last time in the
news (TV, Radio, and Internet) I heard/read paid $$$$ for some celebrity's
public hair, and regular hair, they pay good $$$ for some famous (or serial
killers) prisoners' belonging etc. and media tries to get the law to stop
prisoner to have the right to sell their stuff to public.
So, you too can just photograph something to sell on eBay and I woudn't
care to ask what you sell <bg>
